Why Nova Scotia?
DHX Media has deep roots extending back more than a decade in Nova Scotia. Founded and headquartered in Halifax, it is a long-standing member of our creative community. DHX Media invests in developing local talent through education, training, and employment on its productions and in its animation studio.

A changing market.
The way people consume content is constantly changing. Traditional broadcast remains the primary segment of the content market, but subscription and advertising video-on-demand services like Netflix and YouTube continue to capture an increasing share.

To keep its competitive edge in this growing, highly competitive global market, DHX Media plays to its strengths of innovation, developing talent, and smart growth.

With the support of NSBI and the Nova Scotia Film and Television Production Incentive Fund, DHX Media, and Nova Scotia, remain strong competitors in the multi-billion-dollar global content industry, and continue to develop and engage an important pool of talent in Nova Scotia, year after year. - David Regan, DHX Media
